Own BBC names Christopher Harkins37 and Scotland dating-fraud/sexual-offence imprisonment; protected own documentary synopsis names Christopher Harkins/Scottish TinderPredator. That rare named-person conjunction supports bounded shared coverage across2024 and protected later-year reporting, without claiming identical media work or a dated follow-up. Keep BBC214000GBP and Facebook/Tinder only there; protected8200wan headline/documentary layer stays separate. No12-year term, Shannon identity/payment or documentary viewing is transferred. Original published group/member/version/link envelopes remain immutable; anonymous copies are not identified through this link or group overlap.
